I know I have a Mondeo, but I understand the head units are the same.
I've burnt and Mp3 CD, and instead of having the artist name come up on the Sony head unit, 'ROOT' comes up, and on the next line, the track name (here I can scroll through the song name, number etc). I've burnt another CD, and the artist name comes up (where 'ROOT' does) and the line under it has the track number, and I can scroll through this using a button on the head unit (CD display or something). I'm using iTunes to burn the Mp3 disk, and I have no idea what I am going wrong, as I've managed to do it once, but never again. Should I burn them as folders using another burning programme instead of iTunes? I wouldn't have thought it would be this hard, and not work again. Any help you could give me would be most appreciated, as I've burnt about 5 CDs and wasted a bit of time trying to sort this.

Is there something you can with the Title settings on the headunit itself?

I have a Focus TDi with the standard CD player/radio. If yours is the same it will never play MP3 CDs as it is not designed to play them. Usually a MP3 compatible player/radio will have MP3 printed on the front. The only way to play MP3 CDs is via an external MP3 player plugged into the Auxilary socket. In the Focus the Aux socket is in the glove box.
Hope this helps. |

irs the Mondeo has an MP3 compatible Sony head unit.
Dusty1, if you use something like Nero, you can edit Allbum, Track and Artist info by track or album. I ahve no experience with iTunes but worth fishing around it to see. If definitely works - I burn my tracks using Nero and they work well in Mondeos both TDCi and XR5 Turbo. I'd suggest getting intimate with a bottle of wine and iTunes for a night - that's the only way I'd ever use that rubbish, by being blind and desperate. About the only way you'd make sense of it too.
